Mint Mark Restaurant

Location: Madison, Wisconsin

Areas of Expertise: Custom Metals

Our Custom Metals team created a large, hanging pot rack/shelving unit and countertops for Mint Mark, a 2024 James Beard Award-nominated restaurant. Patrons of the new restaurant feel immersed in the dining experience with the kitchen area in full view. The design means that Hooper’s work is on display and was crafted to be both functional for staff and aesthetically pleasing for customers.

The pot rack is made of polished stainless steel and measures 48” in height, 108” long and 48” tall and hangs from the structural steel beams above the ceiling. This all sits above a floor cooler that features stainless-steel countertops. The hanging shelves provide chefs easy access to pots, pans, plates, and platters. Holes were drilled into each shelf for lighting.

Hooper’s ability to craft high quality, made-to-order pieces for restaurant industry clients has garnered work for Chipotle, Noodles, Which Wich, and Culver’s, just to name a few. Our team also works with area general contractors creating customized products for food service areas in schools, hotels, and hospitals across the state.
